InuYasha Fan Fiction / Vampire Hunter D Fan Fiction ❯ Eternally Yours ❯ Seeking Shelter ( Chapter 18 )

18.

Sango was a bit confused, if she had been sure of anything these days, she would have been sure that D just had displayed jealousy towards Ivan, but she was not sure of anything. She took a deep breath and threw any thought she might have had inside her mind, overboard and rested her head against his broad back. For a moment she could feel him stiffen and she let out a snort. She was not going to rape him if it was that he was afraid of, she only wanted to rest for a while. But then she was struck by the thought - where the hell were they going?

- Hey D, where are we going? she asked without moving her head from its comfortable position.

- To visit a friend, he answered.

- A good friend?

- …. Yes, she is a good friend, he said after a few moments of silence.

This time it was Sango's turn to feel the black beams of jealousy. "Who is she then? If D calls her a good friend?" she asked but choose not to ask anymore questions about it. D seemed to be feeling a bit awkward about it.

D was fully aware of when Sango fell asleep behind him. He was glad that she had not asked any more questions about his friend. He was still a bit edgy when it came down to Layla, the girl he once had promised to bring a flower to if she died before he did. And he did. Her young relative had seen him and talked to him, he smiled at the memory. The young girl was probably a spitting image of Layla when she was at the same age. "That girl must be around her thirties now." he thought absently and frowned a bit. The years seemed to just fly away.

He looked up and saw the sun set in the west; it was time to find a camp for the night. This was vampire country and they had to find somewhere safe to spend the night. He saw an abandon house near the edge of a river and he decided it was going to have to do. He sped up the horse a bit, wanting to reach the house before the darkness fell. He felt Sango come to life behind him as the ride got a bit bumpier, but it did not matter, she would probably wake up soon anyway he gathered.

- Where are we? asked Sango and rubbed the sleep from her eyes as she yawned.

- Nowhere, said D.

- Huh?

- I don't know this part of the country is called, he explained.

- Ok.

- We will spend the night in that abandon house over there, said D and pointed towards the house.

She nodded and scooted closer on him on the horse. She was cold and she felt weak. With a disgusted face she knew what she needed - blood. Not any kind of blood either, she needed his blood. The problem was, how the hell could she gather the courage to tell him that? No, she would not tell him, it was he and not her, that got her into this situation, he would just had to see for himself how weak she would grow if he did not tend to her. She closed her eyes and moved to rest her head against his back again. She was tired, that was probably a side effect of the blood thing too.

D stopped next to the house and tried to get down without waking up Sango, after a few struggling movements he managed to catch her before she fell off the metallic horse. "Shit, why the hell did you not tell me Sango? You must have known that you were thirsty…" he thought when he understood the reason to why she was sleeping and why she did not woke up due to his rather harsh handling of her body.

- She needs blood D, stated Lefty obviously.

- Don't you think I know that, spat D angrily.

- Hey, you don't have to be so rude, snorted Lefty and then decided to shut up, his master was in very bad mood.

D ignored his symbiotic face and carried his precious cargo into the house. With one forceful kick he opened up the door and he found an old bed and inspected it first before he put Sango down on it. It looked clean enough. He bared his arm and ripped open a flesh wound and tried to shake the slayer a bit so she would wake up.

- She is too weak, you must force feed her, said Lefty just before D managed to shut him up by balling his hand into a fist.
